Letter of the day: Let's clear the air on respiratory infections "Handwashing helps prevent gastrointestinal infections but will not protect your child and you from leaving the emergency department with influenza or COVID."

"For COVID, during late January 2026, out of 100 patients in hospital with COVID, 45 would have been admitted to hospital without COVID and been infected during their stay."

"illness-related absence fell from 4.3% to 3.4%, a reduction of around 21% . . .

And the cost? Around 5 pence per pupil per day."
